Replay 2: James Milner on how Jurgen Klopp transformed Liverpool

Football's Greatest

In the second of our 'Replays', former England midfielder James Milner discusses the impact of Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool. With Klopp aiming to win a second Premier League title before leaving in the summer, Milner takes us back to the start of his reign at Anfield. We go inside the dressing room and on to the training pitch as Milner provides an insight into how Klopp turned around the club's fortunes.

What was Klopp like to work with when he first arrived?

How did he use anger to set standards early on?

What preconceptions might Klopp have had about English footballers?

Milner also recalls the funny conversation he and Klopp had about changing his role with Liverpool, why he claims to have made Andy Robertson's career and how his 'team first' mindset allowed him to flourish at Liverpool, even when asked to play out of position.

Football's Greatest is a Folding Pocket Production with BBC Studios.
